Step Up!



Step Up!

Shake said there was a need for a Q today yesterday when we were at Dromedary.  I hesitated,  why,  honestly, I have built a pile of excuses in my head.  I am hurt, school could run late tonight,  I don’t really have a plan…. Excuses, all excuses, and leaders don’t make excuses, they figure out get shit done and don’t make excuses.  So when I finally put my big boy pants on I decided to text Shake and the good news is I didn’t lose my opportunity to step up.

DICCS given,  BURPEE train to start the Q.  I think I got about 10 in and then we moseyed over to the apartments for 30SSH,10 SLOW Merkins, some stretches.

The Thang:

Mosey to the Animal Hospital,  cross and 10 jump squats every other light till the tire shop.  Head to do Shopping for pain.  Every DOOR,  3 Burpees of the first building, circle back to start 10 Mary Catherine’s at each door all the way to the end of both buildings.  Head back 3 Merkin Shredders at EACH Business.  Run one more time with 1 Burpee again at each Sign.  Head back as time was tight,  hit the lights back with 10 Calf raises at every 3rd light, then mosey to the bottom of the hill.  Time was up so my chase the rabbit up the hill was null.

 

Moleskin:  HOW BOUT THAT CHATTERBOX!! I first worked out with this pax about a month maybe two month ago and he walked half the time, for the last couple weeks he is killing it, by far one of the most drastic improvements i have seen in a long time,,, NICE WORK.  I also told Dana he almost made my backblast,,,, I was running back at a pretty good clip but my legs were burning but as I strive to do I didn’t want that OLD man Ice 9 (almost a respect) to beat me back as he was on a solid clip back while I noticed a yellow shirt breathing down my neck,  I thought it was Dana and I was like Damn, Dana has gotten super fast, that said, it wasn’t Dana but good ole Deadwood with his yellow shirt,  not to say Dana doesn’t get his props as well,  if you don’t know Dana is half the man he was a couple of years ago,  he has completely different looking man and my expectation is that he will be breathing down my neck shortly.  Couple of other side notes,  Shake was certainly pushing himself, Bayo certainly has some wheels,  Premature is taking the bull by horns, Rockwell and recalulating didn’t give up on proper form while I saw some others did.  Sugar Daddy and Snider are a force of positive that I always appreciate.  Carb was fairly quiet this morning but I saw him put the work in.  Dasher on the other hand was not and clearly a beast as he can carry a conversation with Ice while they are doing burpees?? Great morning, Shake thanks for the opportunity to lead,  men,  don’t hesitate when you have an opportunity to step up,  don’t listen to the excuses in your head, press on and lead,  this applies to all areas of your life, not just at 530AM.
